Dear community I am doing something wrong with my script. I am trying to automize my script. The load function is given me a error. I dont know exaclty what I am doing wrong. My dataset is as follow from data1 till data40. From each data I want to get a plot and name the plots for data1 --> data1. Can someone please help me out.
As shown below
matfiles= dir ('data*')
N = length(matfiles) ;
for i = 1:N
load(matfiles(i).) ; % I want to load for example data 1 of the dataset and then further naming the variables of each dataset. giving the
frequency = data(:,1);
zabsolute = data(:,2);
degree = data(:,3);
x= frequency * 1000; %% frequency is given in KHz multiply with 1000
y1 = zabsolute .* cosd(degree); %% formula to calculate the imaginair component of impedance
y2 = zabsolute .* sind(degree); %% formula to calculate the real component of impedance
figure(i)
subplot(2,1,1);
plot(x,y1),
title ( ' Resistance ' );
xlabel ( ' Frequency (Hz)');
ylabel ( ' Re Z');
subplot (2,1,2);
plot (x,y2);
title ( ' Reactance' );
xlabel ( ' Frequency (Hz)');
ylabel ( ' Img Z')
end

load(matfiles(i).)
% ^^ You forgot to write the fieldname.
Note that you should specify the file extension and for more reliable code always load into an output variable:
S = dir('data*.mat');
for k = 1:numel(S)
D = load(S(k).name);
frequency = D.data(:,1);
zabsolute = D.data(:,2);
degree = D.data(:,3);
..
end

Thanks for the help Stephen. I will look forward into it. I think the dot has to be removed in the first line or else it does not run the script. I will try it out and let you know if it succeds me to get figures out of this script. Agian much thanks to you Stephen.

It helped me a lot thanks to you. I get all the figures at once now.
